Nolan Madison McDonald, 16, of Pelham, GA, passed away on Thursday, May 16, 2024. Funeral Services will be held at First Baptist Church of Thomasville on Wednesday May 22, 2024 at 11:00 am with Pastor Danny Murphy and Pastor Felisha Pearson Mitchell officiating. Visitation will be held at First Baptist Church on Tuesday - May 21st at from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm. Madison was born on February 5, 2008 in Thomasville, GA, to Charles David McDonald, Sr. and Adrienne Renee Platt Godwin. He was in 9th grade at Thomas County Central High School. Madison was so loving and caring. He always wanted to help those in need. He judged no one and loved with all of his heart. He was compassionate for anyone less fortunate.  He lit up a room when he walked in with his contagious smile and infectious laugh. He loved his family and friends with all of his heart. In his short 16 years he made such an impact on so many people.  He was such a free spirit and wanted to be a chef when he graduated from high school.  The thing I think about Madison is how he loved and he loved so hard. He was the best son, brother and friend. If you would like to honor Madison in some way, give to someone that is in need. That was what he loved to do the most. He said God put us here to love people, not judge, just to love.  He will be so missed by everyone.  He is survived by; his parents, Renee Platt Godwin (Mike) of Pelham, GA, Charles David McDonald, Sr. (Jami) of Boston, GA, siblings, Dillon Clanton (Tiffany) of Thomasville, Christopher Clanton (Emily Labbate) of Pavo, GA, Bryce Clanton (Jordan Green) of Mapleton, UT, Seth Bennett of Cairo, GA, Charles McDonald, Jr. (Holly) of Coolidge, GA, Justin McDonald (Brooke) of Cairo, GA, Brittany Sangster (Sammy) of Thomasville, and other siblings, Jace Ragan of Thomasville, Jayden Ragan of Boston, GA, CJ Moore of Boston, GA, Noah Hobbs of Valdosta, GA, Levi Godwin and Austin Godwin of Meigs, GA, Dylan Godwin of Ochlocknee, GA, and Bre Godwin of Cairo, GA, step-grandparents Woody Sanders (Sherry), and uncles, Scott Platt (Sarah) and Don Harrell (Tammy), and many nieces and nephews.
